This blog addresses the fatal flaw at the core of capitalism as a system of human psycho-socio-political-economic collective self-reproduction, a flaw which ultimately renders it a self-DIS-organizing, self-destroying system -- as is becoming increasingly evident. It also details the successor system to capitalism, the new system that represents the higher, positive way forward for humanity: Political-ECONOMIC DEMOCRACY, or EQUITISM.

I have posted below the transcript of the first public interview ever granted by Karl Seldon, the co-founder of FoundationEncyclopediaDialectica [F.E.D.], and the discoverer, in 1996, of the firstdialecticalarithmetic -- also the first'contra-Booleanalgebra'; the firstalgebraic dialectical logic -- and ofthedialecticof thedialecticalarithmetics, a dialectical progression of systems of dialectical arithmetic, modellable using the algebra of the firstdialecticalarithmetic, and hence also the discoverer of the '''mathematics of dialectics''' entire.

This
interview is a rare opportunity -- indeed, an almost unique
opportunity -- to glimpse directly the self-movement of the mind of the
person behind the subject-matter of this blog, and behind all of the
manifold works of FoundationEncyclopediaDialectica [F.E.D.]!

For a similar view of the "Antihumanism" of the descendance-phase Ruling Class, with much historical background, see the new book [published in 2012] by Robert Zubrin, title: MERCHANTS OF DESPAIR-- Radical Environmentalists, Criminal Pseudo-Scientists, and the Fatal Cult of Antihumanism.

Miguel

P.S. F.E.D.-unfamiliar readers take note: The title of this interview -- "Terran Humanity at the Brink" -- is a reference to Dr. Seldon's famous First Afterword to the partially-extant e-Book DialecticalIdeography, co-authored by Dr. Seldon and F.E.D. co-founder Sophya St. Germain:

WM:Welcome, Doctor
Seldon. Let me begin by, first of all,
thanking you, and the F.E.D.General Council, for granting me this first-ever to-be-published interview with you.I've been waiting for this moment, with
anticipation, ever since the F.E.D.General Council's first letter to this web site, dated
June 5th, 2004.

KHS:You are most
welcome, and also most deserving!I also
know, from our many conversations over the years since that first letter, that
you know that the timing of such events is a matter for the most careful
psychohistorical calculation.Also, I
know that you are aware that this first interview may not be able to go on for
as long -- or into as much depth -- as you and I both would like, because the
global situation is so utterly delicate as of this present moment, and we of F.E.D.are ethically committed do everything in our power,
however minute that power may be, and whatever the risks to our persons, to
help "swerve" the present situation away from the precipice of a
New/Final Dark Age, and toward the take-off point for Terran humanity's first Global Renaissance.

WM:Yes, and, given
our situation, I propose that we "cut to the chase", so that I will
ask you for your most urgent bottom line recommendations to the world wide web
public of this web site first -- jumping ahead to a question which might have
otherwise been my last question, or, at least, a later question, in this
interview, had our situation not been so urgent.

After that, we can see how far we can get
into my "lower priority" questions.

So, my first question to you is this one:What
is the most urgent message that you and the rest of the F.E.D.General Council wish to convey to the guests of this
web site tonight?

KHS: The core-plutocracy-orchestrated "Fiscal
Cliff"/Sequestration/Federal Government Spending Limit drama, now nearing
its climax in the U.S., may be designed to provide cover for the core
plutocracy to trigger a new, drastically-deeper phase of their engineered 'Global
Great Depression II', a la, in their 'Global Great
Depression I', their1931
Credit-Anstalt default trigger, that plunged the global financial system into
the pit of 1933, and beyond.

It is of
crucial importance, at this juncture, that the peoples of Europe,
the U.K., and the U.S. continue to demonstrate
their firm opposition to the draconian, Depression-worsening,
viciously-descending spiralsofthe "austerity"
regimes that the core plutocracy is attempting to impose, most savagely
in Greece, sofar, but, soon, equally,
or even more savagely, elsewhere in Europe, and in the U.K.,
and in the U.S. as well -- and, ofcourse,
alsoinChina, India, Brazil, and Russia,
etc., through the catastrophic contraction of global tradeentailed
by the collapse of effective demand in theE.U./U.K./U.S.
--if that core plutocracy are not
frightened into putting thebrakes on their present time-table,
preciselyby such popular resistance.

If the core plutocracy is running a similar
time-table to that they ran for their 'Global Great Depression I', then
2013 corresponds to 1934, so that they have already been forestalled, since
2010, if it corresponds to 1931, from "pulling the trigger" for the
deeper phase of their 'Global Great Depression II', by the
beginnings of a popular "catching on" to their machinations, as
expressed by the massive anti-plutocracy demonstrations in Europe, and, to a
lesser extent, in the U.K./U.S., the latter being the very home turfs of the
ruling, "Eugenics" faction of the core plutocracy.

It is equally crucial, however, that these popular demonstrations avoid
the initiation of violence.

Nonviolence is a key to the effectiveness of
efforts for social betterment, because violence corrupts its initiators,
converting them, even if their violence is "successful" in
overthrowing the violent tyranny that they had opposed, into but the new
incumbents of the very evil that they had intended to overthrow -- reinstating
that evil through them, as them -- and thus resulting, for them, and
for humanity as a whole, in a defeat which could not be more complete.

Of course, the
agents of the core plutocracy will initiate violence, against
peaceful demonstrators, and will attempt to provoke a violent reaction from
such demonstrators.

Such provocations provide opportunities for these
agencies of the core plutocracy to apply their crippling and maiming
"technologies", and their "population reduction" methods --
and to "justify" martial law, etc.,
etc., a la the core plutocracy’s
Syrian erstwhile 'servant-dictator'.

Given all of this,
we recommend immediate -- and increasing -- recourse to methods of effective
protest that do not require citizens to expose themselves to maiming, mayhem,
and murder, on the public streets, by the core plutocracy's proto-police-state
apparatuses.

In our opinion,
such boycotts should target those
mega-corporations that are prostituting the executive, the legislative, and the judicial branches of national governments,
across the Northern temperate zone, to impose the core plutocracy’s ‘eugenics
solution’, in particular, by
means of ‘stealth genocide’, including via draconian "austerity", via their global, ‘pseudo-food’-induced obesity/diabetes epidemic, and via
naked aggression -- variously-excused military assaults upon, invasions of, and occupations of
other countries -- countries that have not attacked the U.S./U.K..

Some main objectives of these invasions is ‘stealth genocide’ via “collateral damage” -- ultra-high levels of
“accidental” civilian casualties -- and to recruit more revenge-seeking enemies
of the U.S. among the survivors [e.g., with the rate of rape committed by U. S.
soldiers against their female comrades-in-arms being so high, just imagine the rate
of rape against the occupied civilian population], to help “justify” keeping
the military-industrial complex budget “booming” -- as well as to achieve some
‘stealth genocide’ also against the young, plutocracy-impoverished citizens of
the U.S., who the plutocracy has made sure will have few job options other than
those in the military, and who, thus, populate the U.S. “volunteer” army -- e.g., via
suicides, e.g., due to PTSD induced by witnessing, and by being forced to
participate in, war crimes, and other crimes against humanity -- rapes,
tortures, mass murders, etc., etc. -- of the occupied civilian populations.

These are all only particular instances of
the plutocracy’s general “divide & rule” method, e.g., inducing people that the plutocracy has
impoverished in one part of the world to kill other people that it has
impoverished in another.

The value that the plutocracy truly places upon U.S. volunteer
soldiers can be inferred by how immediately these former soldiers are
discarded, denied any help, denied their Veterans Administration medical care rights, etc., once they return from the occupied
territories.

[It is our theory that the rank and file
levels, and even senior executive levels, of these mega-corporations are typically
not privy to the “eugenics”/‘stealth genocide’ intent of their corporate
operations and products, being motivated mainly by the amplified profits
attendant thereupon. That is, nutrition-emptied
and/or toxic, processed ‘pseudo-foods’ that generate disease-inducing addictive binge
consumption, and pharmaceutical drugs that induce cascades of dangerous,
potentially lethal side-effects, requiring yet further pharmaceutical drugs to
mitigate those side effects -- further drugs each of which has its own
dangerous side-effects, thus requiring further such “medication”, etc. -- can,
indeed, drive huge profits, but these are profits upon the contraction,
not upon the expansion, of human social
reproduction.It is, we believe, the few
but highly influential controllers of these corporations, at the [interlocking]
Boards of Directors levels, banker levels, and beyond, who consciously prosecute the
“eugenics”/‘stealth genocide’ agenda.But these “agents of influence” of the core plutocracy must promote
their ‘stealth genocide’ operations under the cover of profitability -- and
these operations must in fact deliver mega-profits -- to keep their
corporate-executive underlings in line, and to keep those underlings able to
keep their underlings in line, ..., i.e., all of them in effective, if unconscious,
alignment with the core plutocracy’s ‘‘‘eugenocidal’’’ plan.]

Such mass boycotts would tell the core
plutocrats that the public is becoming aware of the plutocracy's global war on
humanity, and is beginning to fight back against that "population
reduction" strategy, including against the ‘stealth genocide’ producers
referenced above, with effective non-violent weapons.

If the people of Europe and of North America do not give such evidence of their awakening
to the plutocracy's war upon them, and upon the rest of humanity, then the core
plutocracy will be encouraged to accelerate their tightening of the nooses that
they have placed around the necks of the rest of humanity, worldwide.

If your site guests here wish more in-depth
background about this global situation, I recommend that they study the
serialization, by F.E.D.’sMiguel Detonacciones,
of the Equitist Advocacy group’s manifesto entitled "Malady and Remedy",
via the following URLs --

WM:It sounds as
if you, and Miguel, and the Equitist Advocacy group, are all alleging a
multi-genocidal conspiracy by what you term “the core plutocracy” -- is that
correct?

KHS:That, yes we
are.

But not simply that.

We are not asserting that the conspiracy of the core
plutocracy is the final cause of what is now unfolding in Terran human
history.

It is but a secondary cause, one
which is itself caused by a far deeper cause.

Now, of course, the “core plutocracy” is the present “ruling faction” of
the present, global “ruling class”, and a ruling class is, by fact, and by
definition, always a conspiracy against the interests of the rest of the
society that it rules, for the perceived differential benefit of itself, at the
expense of all others.

But the ‘humanocidal
mania’ of the present core plutocracy is a consequence of the unintended “laws”
of a total human social practice that is based upon humanity valuing economic
“value” -- monetary “value”, capital-“value”, profitability-“value”, and the
social power, and the “perks”, that the ownership of this “value” brings with
it -- above all else.

The ‘humanocidal mania’ of the core
plutocracy, since ~1900, is the predictable
response, by human Nature, especially by the Nature of the core plutocracy, to
the prospect of their massive loss
of social power, due to their prospective loss of “value” -- due to the prospective “loss” of the profit-“value”, and,
therefore, of the power-“value”, of the core capital-“value” that they own, due
to ‘technodepreciation’-driven loss,
or fall, of their
rate of profit on their ‘techno-obsolescent’ fixed-capital-“value” -- especially
on that of their petroleum “value”, in the face of the increasingly
irrepressible advent of fusion power and of other ‘oil-obsoleting’ scientific
and technological innovations.

Look what
a mere pipsqueak ‘servant-dictator’ like al-Assad has done, and is still doing,
in response to a non-violent challenge, by his people, to his power:turning his weapons of mass destruction on
their cities, on their homes, and on their bodies.

Then guess how much more viciously the
ultra-dictators of the global petroleum-finance plutocracy will respond to a proximate
threat to their
power, such as is 'technodepreciation' in the '''descendance phase''' of the capitals-system.

The way things are, broadly speaking, is, in
this sense, the only way that they could be, given the nature and process of
Terran human origins, the conditions of Terran human life, and the
human-genomic and‘human-phenomic’
consequences thereof, throughout all of human prehistory to-date.

Our science of psychohistory enables us to see that
this entire descendant-phase ‘metafinite singularity’ of the global capitals-system,
this looming ‘Meta-Darwinian Planetary Selection Test’ of the Terran human
phenome/human genome totality, this ultra-degeneration and ‘Meta-Darwinian
ultra-unfitness’ of the contemporary ruling class, have all been, broadly
speaking, essentially and broadly inevitable ever since human social
productivity breached the level where exchange-value emerged from use-value,
and, in actuality, ever since the human genome itself first emerged.

Likewise, this total history is now bringing,
to the threshold of possibility, humanity’s power to put an end
to this prehistory, for the first time ever in that prehistory.

The Foundation values the role in the world, and the heritage, of
the United States of America,
despite its many sins and shortcomings -- even if, broadly, inevitable ones.

We have located both of our main centers of
operation on U. S. soil -- one on the Western extremity of the North American
continent, at Terminious, California, and the other one on its Eastern
extremity, at Stars’ End, New York.

I now ask your
guests of this site, especially those who are citizens of
the United States of America,
to ask themselves what, today, is left of the legacy and of the heritage of
liberty in the U.S.A.;
what is left of the U. S. Constitution and of its Bill of Rights.

Under the recent U.
S. Federal Government administrations -- administrations of the [both
‘misnomered’] “Republican” Party & “Democratic” Party alike, as if
they have been working to a common plan, despite all of their dividing-&-conquering theatrics of supposedly
unalloyed mutual hostility and opposition -- the U. S. Constitution/Bill of
Rights has been utterly shredded, in essence, if not yet fully in practice, ‘til
essentially nothing of it remains in recent “law”:

By the recent “eminent domain” decision by the U. S.
Supreme Court, any sufficiently influential private corporation, enlisting the
support of “your” municipal government, can confiscate your personal and/or your
private property, e.g., your home, with but pennies on the dollar in
“compensation” to you.“Eminent domain”
takings of private and personal property were intended to achieve overriding public good, not merely private corporate profit, but, no
more! [Kelo v. City of New London,
545 U.S. 469(2005), http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/04-108.ZO.html];

By recent U. S. Supreme Court decision, U. S. corporations now have the “right”, as ‘virtual
persons’, hence also as ‘virtual citizens’, to apply their effectively unlimited
monetary wealth so as to effectively “buy” U. S.elections. This decision is expected
to increasingly nullify the voting rights of the actual citizens of the United
States, at all levels of government -- local, state, and national -- and to
prostitute, to corporate special interests, an ever greater proportion of those
candidates who wish to be able to win elections -- by buying more mass media mud-slinging
ads than their opponents, etc. -- which requires those candidates, if they are not
independently wealthy, to accept millions in corporate de facto bribery [Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, 558 U.S. 310 558(2010), http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/cert/08-205];

By recent Congressional legislation, signed into law
by President Obama, the government, by its sole order, has the “right” to imprison any U. S. citizen indefinitely -- even for the rest of
their lives -- without charge(s), without trial, without conviction of any
crime, by any jury of their peers, and without any habeas corpus access,
or other access, to the U. S. Courts, for that “citizen”, a “citizen” thereby
reduced, ipso facto, to a kind of “non-citizen” slave of the [‘‘‘corporatist’’’]
government [ http://www.longislandpress.com/2013/02/08/ndaa-indefinite-detention-sparks-outrage-at-appeals-court/];

By recent U. S. Dept. of “Justice” secret memo, the U. S. federal government, has the “right”, by
its sole decision, to murder
any U.
S. citizen, without charge(s), without trial
-- without conviction, by a jury of their peers, of any crime, if the
government "thinks" that this citizen is an "enemy combatant"

Clearly, these new
corporate and government “rights” are really wrongs, and total violations of
the U. S. Constitution and Bill of Rights.

These developments instantiate the horror that is heralded by our
psychohistorical, technical prediction: ‘the
law of motion of descendant-phase
capital-based society is a
sociotaxis to totalitarian, humanocidal state-capitalism’.

They come at the
same time that the Wall Street ‘‘‘R.I.C.O.’’’ corporations and their criminal CEOs
have stolen, from so many millions of Americans, andwithout a single Big Bank CEO
prosecution, those citizens’ pensions, their 401(k)s, their life savings, their
jobs, and their homes.

Moreover, these same
CEOs have also absconded -- via the
complicity of the many ruling class members who are also federal government
appointees at the highest levels, and of their lower-level political prostitutes
in the U. S. federal government -- with trillions of dollars of U. S.
taxpayers funds, and also with the proceeds of trillions of dollars of new taxpayer
debt, created to “bail out” those CEOs, which they then used to pay themselves even
more exorbitant salaries and bonuses than they used to do before they launched their
‘Global Great Depression II’, as well as to buy even
more elections -- so that they have effectively robbed the Social Security
Trust Fund, and the U. S. Treasury as a whole, of the funds previously promised
to actually benefit majority taxpayers, and so that they can now say -- ‘‘‘we
really just can’t afford the promised Social Security and Medicare benefits
[that workers pay for from every paycheck], Medicaid, Head Start, Pell Grants, U.
S. Federal Government Pensions to federal government workers, or any social
safety net at all’’’, and so that they can continue to buy elections to put into
office enough prostitute politicians to repeal these programs, and to repeal virtually every
other government program that actually benefits the U.S. majority [ http://americablog.com/2012/11/multi-billion-dollar-bailout-queen-ceo-insists-social-security-cuts-are-necessary.html].

The
“representative-democratic” political system of the United States of America has become
increasingly reduced to a system of legalized corporate bribery, to a system
of intellectual and political, policy prostitution to mega-corporate Big
Money, by which the major corporations write the laws of the land, and thereby
also “legalize” their mounting criminality.

The houses of
legislature have become houses of prostitution, together with the
executive mansions and the court houses-- especially the White House and the “house” of the “corporatist” U. S.
Supreme Court.

The horrific
results, sampled above, are hardly surprising.

And the ruling
corporate whores have far more horror still in store for you and your family.

So, we ask our U. S. citizen friends:What is left of your America?

Is this
“bi-partisan” shredding of the founding contracts of the United States of America
simply an accident?

Or, does it reflect
the intention, the agenda, and the plan of the ruling, core plutocracy, which
wields both major political parties like a limp pair of soulless marionettes?

WM:Why, then --
as you have described, in part, above -- is the human world on Earth today such
a horrible place, so bad, so retrogressive?

Why do all efforts to improve it seem to end in failure, or, even worse,
in even furtherworsening-- e.g., the recent pro-democracy revolutions
across the Arab world?

KHS:The primary
reason for this is that the most powerful institutionalized social
force that has ever existed on Earth, in all of Earth's
known human history to date -- today's global, core, petroleum-finance
plutocracy -- is hell-bent on preventing, or reversing, any improvement of
human life for the vast majority of humanity, and on making life worse
for that vast majority, until that plutocracy has made life literally
impossible for most of that majority.

The deeper causes, behind that primary
reason, have their sources in the 'intra-duality' of the capitals-system of
human-societal self-reproduction, combined with the human
"power-sickness" that afflicts Terran humanity, both genomically and
'phenomically'.

As the capitals-system develops, the
growth of social productivity -- "the growth of the human social forces of production"
-- is expressed in both the growing physical mass of the fixed capital plant
and equipment used in production, relative to the mass of labor-power also mobilized
therein, and also in the increasing concentration, consolidation,
and centralization of the ownership of the largest agglomerations
of that fixed capital, and of the socio-economic and political power that goes
with the monetary returns upon that ownership, in ever fewer hands.

Those “fewer hands” eventually become the
global, core, ruling, petroleum/finance faction of the global plutocracy.

At a certain point in this development -- at the
turning point from the ascendant phase to the descendant phase of the
capitals-system -- further productivity-increasing innovations obsolete, hence
devalue, more “sunk” fixed capital value than the incremental profit value that
they add, especially for this ultra-fixed-capital-intensive core plutocratic
faction.

Think what fusion power would do to the value
of oil itself, and to that of the global capital infrastructure used to
"produce" it -- fusion power that yields, from a gram of its fuel,
energy equivalent to that from 8 tons of oil.

Those who have experienced near absolute socio-political
power, and who have succumbed to the "power-sickness" that such
experience typically breeds in Terran humans, will do anything in their
power to hold on to that power.

No level of crimes against humanity, no amount of murder, is too much to
perpetrate for the monsters that such people become, if they think that those
mega-crimes will enable them to retain their socio-political-economic power.

As I mentioned earlier, erstwhile
'servant-dictator' Bashar al Assad foreshadows, on a smaller -- but now
openly-visible -- scale, the "power-sickness" of the core plutocracy
that we are pointing out, and the ultra-vicious actions that it breeds in them.

So, starting in the late 1800s, the
plutocracy moves to crush incipient industrialization in the global periphery to the
core regions of earliest capitals-system development -- e.g., the U.K., France,
and the U.S. core -- suppressing those regions under military dictatorships,
'servant-dictatorships' -- "servant" to the core plutocracy,
"dictator" to their own people -- thereby turning that periphery into
the modern "Third World" -- since competition from the most advanced
vintages of fixed capital, installed "from the git-go" in
newly-industrializing regions -- and also operated by the initially cheaper
labor-power located there, to boot -- would devastate the capital value and
profitability of the legacy fixed capital in the old capitalist core regions,
especially that owned directly by the core plutocracy, or financed by, e.g.,
the largest banks, also owned, by then, by the core plutocracy.

The core plutocracy likewise suppresses
technological innovation within the original industrial core region, the U.S.,
the U.K., and Western Europe, and invests in anti-technology and anti-science
ideologies, sparing only those sciences and technologies that they can harness
to turn technologies of production -- "productive forces" -- into
"forces of destruction"; into "destructive forces" -- e.g.,
into military means of mass destruction, into engineered world wars, into [“eu”]genocides
-- and to transition from an ascendant-phase regime of profit
predominantly on expansion of social reproduction to a
descendant-phase regime, more and more profiting on their deliberately-induced
contraction of social reproduction.

Of course, the core plutocracy also happily allows
‘technodepreciation’ to proceed unabated in industrial sectors in which they
have limited investments or loans outstanding, and/or in which the
‘technodepreciation’-driven bankruptcies of small corporations there will allow
the core plutocrats to send in their carpetbaggers to acquire those small corporations,
and/or their assets, for pennies on the dollar, when they perceive advantages
to their power in so doing.

E.g., they thereby eliminate components of
citizen freedom, and/or consolidate their concentrated ownership and control over
the economy and over the polity even further -- e.g., in the book publishing
industry, and via the more recent, internet-driven ‘technodepreciation’ bankruptcies
in the public post offices, in the private newspaper and magazine publishing
industries, in the audio-recording publishing industry, etc.

But their suppression of industrialization in
the periphery has the effect of also suppressing the "demographic
transition", in most of the world, e.g., in the "Third World",
and of preventing the development of industrial-productivity-based prosperity
there, thus, in effect, recruiting an ever-growing population of plutocracy-impoverished
people who the plutocracy fears are increasingly ripe to rise up in anger and overthrow its power,
world-wide.

The core plutocracy therefore feels
compelled, in order to retain its vicious, vampiric power over the rest of
humanity, to resort to a global pogrom of "Eugenics" --
of "population reduction", beginning with various forms of 'stealth
genocide', but intended and planned, by the core plutocracy, to escalate into a
global regime of concentration/extermination-camp-based ‘‘‘humanocide’’’, once
they have succeeded in imposing national state-capitalisms/totalitarian rule
globally.The catastrophic contraction of global social
reproduction via the core-plutocracy-orchestrated ‘Global Great Depression I’,
with its proliferation of their fascist state-capitalist ‘servant-dictatorship’
regimes throughout the planetary temperate zones, and with the Stalinist, quasi-autarkic,
proto-state-capitalist “gulag regime” in Russia, was their first attempt at
this.

This first attempt was defeated by the
‘Franken-dictator’ turn, against them, of their erstwhile ‘servant-dictatorship’,
the Hitler Eugenics Regime that they had installed in Germany, a Regime which
switched to an attempt to wrest world dictatorship away from the U.K./U.S.
plutocrats, and, thereafter, by the contest for global power with the Stalinist
‘Franken-dictators’, until the 1989 fall of Stalinism across Eastern Europe.Since then, the plutocracy has, to a
considerable degree, lost control of their Third World, even while they have
regained considerable control of the erstwhile Stalinist “Second World”,
especially in Eastern Europe.

That
is, China,
India, and Brazil have
been able to industrialize, and new middle/working classes are
burgeoning
there, with increasing numbers of their citizens receiving advanced
training in advanced technology and in "high-tech" engineering.

This has induced a state of
unprecedented panic in the core plutocracy.

They feel that they have only a little time left to abort this progress
before accelerating technological development, rising living standards, advancing
education -- and ‘technodepreciation’ -- put a final end to their global rule,
and to all of their prized “perks of rule” -- to their lives of pillage, torture, rape, and mass murder.

In particular, their global efforts to suppress the invention -- hence
also the inventors -- of fusion power, are, they feel, in increasing jeopardy
of imminent failure.

The above, prose rendition of our psychohistorical-dialectical ideographical 'meta-model' -- a vast compression of that full
psychohistory ‘meta-model’ -- brings us to the global situation we face today.

WM:What do you
and the rest of the Foundation do to mitigate,
among yourselves, the universal "power-sickness" that you have just
identified?

KHS:We are a
cloistered, secular monastic order, precisely in order to combat that
"power-sickness" within each of us, and among ourselves.

The disciplines that we use to evoke, and to confront,
that potential sickness within ourselves, and within our community, include the
following --

We
accept no contributions of money from non-members.

No Foundation publications are authored in our "real
names", but only “pseudonymously”, lest the pursuit of power in the form
of personal fame pervert and corrupt our motivations, and the very content of
our work;

The
fruits of our research are typically offered free of any monetary charge, to
every person in the global community of the world wide web, lest pursuit of
power in the form of monetary wealth pervert and corrupt our motivations, and
the very content of our work;

We
advise our www public as to how they might move in socio-political and economic
ways to bring about a Global
Renaissance, and to avert a New/Final Dark Age, with the pledge
that no member oftheFoundationwill ever
seek, or accept, election or appointment to political power / political office,
lest the pursuit of political power pervert and corrupt our motivations, and
the very content of our work.

Moreover, once a trans-capitalist regime --
e.g., one of “Economic
Democracy”, such as that defined by Prof. David Schweickart, or
one of “Political-EconomicDemocracy”,
such as that defined by the Equitist Advocacy group -- “comes to power” by
popular election, as we fully hope and intend that it should do -- and as we work,
with every resource at our disposal, to help to bring that revolution about --
we will serve and support that regime only with the greatest possible
contribution that we could ever provide to it -- that of helping to expose, to
criticize, to check, to balance -- to “whistle-blow” against -- all of the
tendencies that this new regime may exhibit toward abusing their new-found
power, and, thereby, toward self-inducing their own failure and demise, and, along
with that ‘self-induced demise’, probably inducing also thereby the demise of
Terran humanity as a whole.

In both of these two roles -- both that of
this new regime’s “proponent” and “promoter”, and that of this new regime’s
critic and “whistle-blower” -- we would be working to overcome the tendencies
toward the failure/extinction of Terran humanity, in its looming ‘Meta-Darwinian
Planetary Selection Test’.

This "Test" is a ‘“Natural Selection
Test”’, not just of the human
genome, but of the ‘‘‘complex unity’’’ of the human phenome/human genomeentire.

The tendencies that we work to overcome are incarnated, most maximally, in the ‘meta-Darwinian ultra-unfitness’ of the ruling, ‘‘‘humanocidal’’’ core plutocracy, which
actually pursues the anti-fitness aim of
plunging the rate of human social reproduction deep into the negative domain.

The tendencies that we work to reinforce are Terran humanity’s tendencies to successfully pass this looming ‘‘‘Test’’’,
thereby entering into its first GlobalRenaissance, founded upon a
resurgent re-acceleration in the growth of the human-societal self-forces of expanding
human-societal self-re-production, including in the human harnessing of the
‘pre-atomic power’ of nuclear fusion, and also, thereby, entering upon the
threshold of Terran humanity’s ‘trans-planetary’, ‘meta-planetary’, and
interplanetary potential higher destiny.

WM:What’s the
"back story" behind Karl H. Seldon, Sophya St. Germain, and F.E.D. as a whole?

KHS:... One
moment please ... I am being called, right now, into an emergent session of the
F.E.D.Special Council of Psychohistorians.We will have to now suspend this interview,
for the present.Please let me thank
you, once again -- and publicly, this time, Webmaster -- for all that you do
for the upkeep of your crucial website, in particular, and for all that you do
on behalf of the highest good of Terran humanity, in general!

Please allow to me to clarify the relationship to this mathematical approach to marxian theory and pretense of being a "theory of all" (a very good one, let me say) and Dr. Isaac Asimov opus magnum, the Foundation Trilogy. Are they using the name Seldon as a pseudonym / reference / honour to Asimov's trilogy? Or what???

Karl Seldon is the Foundation Encyclopedia Dialectica "nom de plume" of the co-founder of our Foundation.

Because of analogies between our planetary scale project and the galactic scale project of Isaac Asimov's fictional "Foundation Encyclopedia Galactica", our co-founder's last name is a resonance with the family name of the fictional Foundation's founder, Hari Seldon.

Our co-founder's first name is a resonance with the first name of the person we regard as the founder of real psychohistory on planet Earth, Karl Marx.

Thanks for the quick reply! I'll study the fundamentals of your dialectic proposal in the extent of possibilities regarding my mathematical ignorance; they seem very comprehensive, at least from a non-methodological restricted (i.e. philosophical in the broader sense) point of view.
